In my country only have 2 card available the Asus Rog Strix RX470-O4G Gaming and Sapphire RX 470 Platinum Edition 4GB
Asus's price is $20 higher than the Sapphire.
Please help me pick one, I think the Asus Rog Strix RX470-O4G is better because it's OC out of the box, but can I flash the custom ROM, does it have the custom ROM? Thank you

I always prefer Sapphire when using AMD cards because they got the best design. Also, boysie built a whole low power ROM for this 4GB card so I would prefer this card.

1. Blows hot air in one direction and the ref cooler is more than enough for 120W
2. RAM cooling
3. Cheaper
4. Easier bios modding (ASUS has special bios, the offsets are set differently then all the others)
The only advantage of asus is that you can adjust MVDDC directly, but only if you are an expert in bios modding.
But then the lack of direct mem cooling makes memory overvolting dangerous.
